    Sorry, I was a victim of bad typing so I deleted my first comment. I think your brush strokes and colors on Jack are super! Good job, Mark!

    4-5 years... are you kidding? People who spent 40 years painting still don't have the freshness and spontaneity that your Jack Shows. It made me smile the moment the I saw it!

    Thanks guys. I've been shying away from these paintings that need stronger exactness to show a likeness. But I'm giving it a go, just like ya'll.

    That's what it takes, miles of canvas.
    Nice portrait of Jack.
